A Comparison of “Neural Networks and Multiple Linear Regressions” Models to Describe the Rejection of Micropollutants by Membranes [PDF]
A rejection process of organic compounds by nanofiltration and reverse osmosis membranes was modelled using the artificial neural networks. Three feed-forward neural networks based on quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR-NN models ...
